Effect of inclusion of biocholine in the diet of laying hens on performance parameters, egg quality, and serum biochemistry
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different sources of choline in the diet of laying Lohmann Brown hens (26 to 37 weeks of age) on productive performance, egg quality, and blood parameters. A completely randomized experimental design was adopted, consisting of five treatments, with eight replications and six birds per experimental unit. The treatments consisted of a basal diet without supplementation of any source of choline (NC); NC + supplementation with 939 mg/kg choline [...]
